Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International have welcomed UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres’s decision to include Saudi Arabia and the coalition countries on the list of “blacklist” for killing and maiming more than 638 children in Yemen.

Human Rights Watch said on Thursday it welcomed the UN Secretary-General’s decision calling the Saudi alliance to allow aid to enter Yemen and take measures to stop illegal attacks in Yemen.

The organization also called the governments to suspend Saudi arms sales.

Amnesty International was expressed its satisfaction at the decision to include Saudi Arabia and the Alliance in the list of “blacklist” by the United Nations. The organization was one of the most prominent international organizations that conducted investigations into the Saudi alliance war crimes in Yemen.

The Secretary-General of the United Nations decided to include Saudi Arabia and the alliance on the black list based on the report of international experts of the international organization and condemning Saudi Arabia and the coalition countries to commit war crimes in Yemen, was supposed to issue the decision late August but it was delayed by the pressures and threats of Saudi Arabia, may have failed in the face of great pressure exerted by dozens of international organizations that have consistently called on the United Nations to include the alliance on the list of shame.
